Description
Summary:Loxosoma (Loxosomina) aripes (Nielsen, 1964b) n. comb. (Figs 1–8, Table 3) Loxosomella aripes Nielsen, 1964b: 4, fig. 2. Original description. Small species, up to 470 µm. Lophophore has six very short, stout tentacles (one specimen with 4 tentacles). Atrium narrow. Stomach big and rounded. Peduncle longer than calyx. Peduncle slender, terminating in laterally compressed expansion, which on each side bears 3–4 transverse furrows. Youngest buds formed laterally at lower level of stomach, and older buds found above this reaching upper level of stomach; up to three buds at time. Embryos very big and quite deform the calyx; 1–3 embryos at time. Usually buds and embryos found only in one side of animal. Host: Laonice cirrata. Type locality: Raunefjorden, off Sletten (60°16.5′N, 5°12′E), depth 100– 120 m. The holotype is illustrated in Fig. 1. Material examined. Holotype (number 46395) (Fig. 1); No Uk-31 (ZMMU)— six specimens from the Kandalaksha Bay, White Sea (66°34′N, 33°08′E), 30–70 m; six specimens from the ... : Published as part of Borisanova, Anastasia & Schepetov, Dimitry, 2023, Clarification of the diagnosis of the genus Loxosoma s. l.
